Gamo Whisper X – Air Gun Review

Gamo Whisper X is a mid-range classy air-gun which has hit our markets, big time. Before Gamo, there was only Diana air guns in Pakistan. While there is no doubt about the quality of Diana air guns Gamo is an inexpensive alternative for gun enthusiasts, specially in Pakistan. I have seen a number of Gamo guns, all with synthetic stocks. So its a change from the traditional Diana with wooden stocks, besides giving an impressive look.

Dear Salahuddin it depends on which city you are buying it from. Rates are lowest in Peshawar, then Pindi and Lahore and finally Karachi is the most expensive. I think you should not pay more than Rs 23,000 for this rifle.

I think in terms of muzzle velocity it is at par with Gamo Shadow 1000. But it has a dampener and much better grip/ergonomics. I would suggest that buy its original scope if you can. It might cost you a little more say Rs 6000 but the results would be good. It is a good air rifle for hunting doves and pigeons.

Sir thank you so very much for giving me time from ur busy life, Inshallah im going to buy this Air rifle, And I already have scope of Center Point, n im satisfied with it, but I will check gamo scopes too if there was any difference then I will buy that too.

Sir I am searching for the gamo Socom Extreme Air Rifle with a 3-9×50 RGBD Air Rifle Scope(original) but it is difficult to find,can u guide me that how and from where i can buy with cheapest rate and with full accessories 0333xxxxxx text me plz on this number i`ll call u

AOA
Everyone Hope that you are fine . I need expert advice that i want to but Gamo Whisper X and I am getting it for 20k in Rawalpindi. So i need to know following things I ll be great full if you ppl help me to decide should i buy it or not.

1. Range of the gun as i am confuse i have seen in a forum that Gamo Whisper X can take down a target from 80 yards. but in other forum it says that i cant only go around 45 yards.

2. Do you ppl recommend the scope with it ? If yes then which one should i buy
3. I want to hunt rabbits, Pigeons and Ducks (Murgabi).
4. Any other Air Rifle you ppl recommend by budget in around 30 K

Walekum as Salam,
Gamo Whisper is a good air gun cosnidering its specs and price range.
Here’s the reply.
1. Range depends on Muzzle Velocity or simply the power. Its MV isn’t very great. Don’t expect beyond 30 – 40 yards. If you want range go for .22 LR Rifle. Air guns were never designed for long range. The highest would be a Diana Air King (If you can find one, but it is expensive 45 to 50 k or more).
2. I would recommend a Gamo scope, rather than some cheap Chinese one.
3. You can hunt pigeons and doves with it. Rabbits if you are lucky to take a head shot. But ducks , no way.
4. Go for Diana 35, or Diana Panther should cost you around Rs 30 – 35k.
Best wishes.

You can buy a telescope from Lahore. I would recommend an original Bushnell or a Gamo. Do not go for cheap Chinese ones. In Lahore Buksh Elahee sells accessories for Diana. Also you can get original mounts for Diana. Good luck!

I have spent a lot of time in forms collecting info about air guns .like PAK GUNS.COM
most of people there are going with gamo shadow 1000 they said 1000 is good and accurate etc. but i like Gamo Whisper X after a saw these pics NOW i want you to tell me that is there any difference between shadow and whisper except the body (design) i am asking about performance ?

Many thanks for liking my post. I believe any pellet can be used for hunting doves, but when you want precision and “one shot kill” then always go for the best. Please read this range report on a very friendly gun forum, it highly recommends Gamo Pro Magnum. Your Gamo Shodow has to be .22, isn’t it?
Best wishes.

Thanks. You do not need a license for Air guns. Air guns are available in .177 and .22 caliber, in Pakistan. But .22 is more popular. You will require a license for any forearm though, but not air guns.

Gamo whisper is good for 25 to 30 M. It should available for 20 thousand, depending on where you are located. Scope you will have to buy extra. Some vendors do sell scopes also. BSA Mercury is a good gun.

Hello Shakir,
with Air guns you can only hunt small game like pigeons, doves or rabbits. If you can afford go for a Diana. Something like Diana 35 Model. It is a good gun. In Air Guns Muzzle velocity (MV) defines the power of the rifle. If you can get a gun that has 700 foot per second or above MV, go for it. Diana will be a little costly as compared to Gamo. Gamo Shadow 1000, or Gamo Whisper X should cost between 18,000 to 20,000. For Diana add 5 to 7000 more. And a telescope will cost you extra money. Search the Internet for various models of Diana and Gamo looking at their specs (specially MV). Then make your choice. Depending on which city you are located, the price may vary. Best wishes, 🙂

Sir it would be much appreciated if you could shed some light on the carrying or movement of air rifles within the country. For example what are my rights being an owner and in possession of an air rifle lets say with me in my car and being stopped at a check point or something. (I live in Islamabad).

In Pakistan you do not need any license for an Air Gun. But with hindsight I say it is better not to carry an air gun in your car openly. I mean you can place it in the boot or even under the seat. Some air guns are now shaped like automatic weapons or even sniper rifles, so why take a risk. I don’t think you need a hunting license for Air gun. I haven’t heard of one.

Dear, I am not sure about any fake Gamo. If you have seen any please share details. Normally Gamo has a small user manual inside it. The packing is a card board box. Other than this it is a good quality gun which I think local craftsmen cannot make. Also it is a synthetic stock, which local gun makers cannot make.

Waas. You can buy a Pakistani Rainbow which is made in Sialkot and is a copy of Diana. But I would not recommend that. For aroung Rs 10,000 you can buy a Chinese Air gun. There are under lever Chinese models and a few new ones with Fiber optic sights. Or a used Gamo, if you are lucky! 🙂

Hi there,
Would you please tell us if we can buy any PCP guns in Pakistan and if avaiable somewhere than for how much?
Especially some good mades
Like
Daystate Mk4 IS .22
Daystate air ranger .22
And if there are any medium to big game rifles avaiable in Pakistan like

Benjamin marauder .25
Daystate wolverine .303
Benjamin Rogue .357

If you are just by any chance unable to assist on this topic than please refer to any other forum/person in Pakistan.
Would pay a decent amount of money for a daystate air ranger .22 PCP
Wood/tactical

PCP air rifles are available in Pakistan, but not so common. Where exactly are you located? And if I may suggest why don’t you join http://www.thegunforum.net/ and post a question there? You are likely to find someone with an answer.
Regards

It all depends on you. There are cheaper rifles available and then there are pricey ones. If you want a mid range go for Gamo, a better one go for Diana and cheaper one then its a Chinese. But yes if you talk about value for money then Gamo gives good value for money.
Cheers 🙂

Salam, NM AFZAL as we discussed earlier about Gamo whisper X that it good rifle, please tell me what type & company you do recommend for .22 pellet ( for whisper X ) in the lieu of accuracy and maximum range so i’ll get at the same time. thanks for help. SALIM

Dear Afzal Sb
AOA. I am Kamran from Lahore and very much fond of air gun hunting. I hv been using B3-1 for last 20 years but now I will replace it with Gamo or Diana. After seeing your experience in hunting, I like to know that:
1. Which birds are prohibited in our region for hunting.
2. Where can I find wild hare for hunting.
3. Is there any hunters association in Lahore to join for experience sharing.

There is no best. It all depends on you. However, you can make a comparison based on muzzle velocity. If the MV is more it means the gun is more powerful and will be able to hit the target at a greater distance.

slaam sir , I am from Rahim yar khan .I wanna get information about Benjamin trail NP XL 725 .25 caliber air rifle.What’s it’s price in Pakistan and where can i buy it in Rahim Yar khan or Bahawalpur or Lahore .Is that best for hunting ducks(murghabi) or teal and doves ????
i need these information cause now a days i got 2 much interested in Air rifles .

Salam brothers! I have done some research and find out that whisper x in .177 is 1200 fps approx and .22 is 938 fps would you give us some info on that or the velocity in Pakistan varies from gamo.com’s website thank you!
